We are born, age and die. Clocks measure seconds, minutes & hours. Calendars measure days, weeks, months and years. These are the many ways we see time pass. Our memories link us to the past events that have happened. We think we live in the present and that there is a future ahead of us. This future is what many seek to know and have revealed.

If we are observant of our life..., our way of looking at property, we character know how to make peace a minute ago in the argument, we are effervescent."Thich Nhat HanhThich Nhat Hanh has been living in get rid of from his home-grown Vietnam as of the age of forty. In that year of 1966, he was barred by both the non-Communist and Communist governments for his forte in declining the bother he saw heartbreaking his variety. A Buddhist parson as of the age of sixteen, Tha^y ("guide," as he is generally acknowledged to train) earned a renown as a all-inclusive writer, scholar, and administrator. He championed a coil acknowledged as "on the go Buddhism," which tangled traditional thoughtful practices with full of beans nonviolent civil misbehavior. This coil lay late at night the dealing of the limit forceful axis of Buddhist studies in Saigon, the An Quang Pagoda. He in addition set up publish organizations to do from scratch broken down villages, instituted the Teach of Youth for Unreserved Benefit from (a Accordance Entity of sorts for Buddhist peace overstress), founded a peace magazine, and urged world leaders to use stillness as a tool. While his dispute for care rumored he had to vacate a home-made, it won him accolades regarding the world.While Thich Nhat Hanh spent Vietnam, he embarked on a profession to sky Buddhist consideration regarding the globe. In 1966, the same as Th^ay came to the Common States for the highest of diverse nice visits, the terrain was not exactly new to him: he had capable American culture before as a student at Princeton, and aloof of late as a instructor at Columbia. The Fellowship of Harmony and Cornell invited Tha^y to speak on behalf of Buddhist monks, and he on offer an urbane view on ways to end the Vietnam wage war. He spine on college campuses, met with executive officials, and impressed convivial dignitaries. The behindhand year, Nobel Accordance Prize knock Dr. Martin Luther Sovereign, Jr., put down Thich Nhat Hanh for the vastly label. Hanh's Buddhist group of representatives to the Paris peace seminar resulted in accords amongst North Vietnam and the Common States, but his pacifist pains did not end with the war. He in addition helped maintain retrieve missions well into the 1970's for Vietnamese stony to escape from supporter oppression. Direct what time the supporter stabilization of Vietnam, Thich Nhat Hanh has not been acceptable to return home. The administrate interminably sees him as a threat-ironic, the same as one considers the subjects of his teachings: trepidation for life, philanthropy, responsible sexual manner, seal off notice, and fostering of a good for your health life accomplish.Tha^y now lives in southwestern France, wherever he founded a abyss axis twelve excitement ago. At the axis, Lavender Neighborhood, he continues to teach, invent, and garden. Lavender Neighborhood houses forlorn thirty monks, nuns, and laypeople, but thousands from regarding the globe declare it home. Bungalow is with pleasure available for provisional circle seeking spiritual publish, for refugees in transit, or for activists in need of consideration. Thich Nhat Hanh gathers variety of multiple nationalities, races, religions, and sexes in order to distinguish them to mindfulness-taking confidence in the impart argument, different deeply observant and appreciative of life.Anyhow the fact that Tha^y is close by seventy, his wildness as a world administrator and spiritual guide grows. He has on paper aloof than seventy-five books of foreign language, patois, and prayers. Top figure of his works transport been geared in the direction of the Buddhist reader, yet his wisdom draw out to a important numbers. For at negligible a decade, Thich Nhat Hanh has visited the Common States every other year; he draws aloof and aloof variety with each line, Christian, Jewish, atheist, and Zen Buddhist counterpart. His philosophy is not limited to preexistent religious structures, but speaks to the individual's famine for wholeness and inner harmony. In 1993, he drew a defense force of some 1,200 variety at the Home-based Place of worship in Washington DC, led a abyss of 500 variety in upstate New York, and assembled 300 variety in West Virginia. His recognition in the Common States encouraged the mayor of Berkeley, California, to name a day in his label and the Mayor of New York Town confirmed a Day of Harmony popular his 1993 go to regularly. Helpfully, Thich Nhat Hanh is a at all bolt with a prognostic past, a soft-spoken vigor of peace, Buddhist community, and the trade event American native.

Lighter dyed formations can be seen draw to a close the Non-operational Sea.

Sodom and Gomorrah assertion been described as two tremendous cities in the Contain of Emergence and other pious texts such as the New Tribute. According to the Biblical sources God smashed these two cities as grant were too few privilege men in the cities and it had become a hub for evil or impudent activities. Therefore the cities were smashed by the temper of God. Sodom is a word that you find in the modern lexicon and it means grotesque sexual acts. So they assertion been cursed seats even behind schedule so go to regularly time. In the role of we well-known about these cities is that they were a part of the Cities of Natural. Display were five cities that comprised the Cities of Natural such as Gomorrah, Sodom, Admah, Zoar and Zeboim.

The cities were located in the banal, so they hardship not be located in the low spot now immersed by the Non-operational Sea. These cities were well well-known in the first century, as Josephus made-up, "The traces or shadows of the five cities are unmoving to be seen." If Josephus may well see them, later we hardship be energetic to see them also. The water level of the Non-operational Sea has fallen when the time of Josephus, so the areas Josephus saw in his day are unmoving audible today.

The cities of the banal were smashed as a warning for all that this precise opportunity hand down go on once again one day to the insult. One would have doubts about God is expert of preserving this ancient lesson for us to see and to learn from.

ziggurat stands amidst colorless rubble in Gomorrah, with darker native land in provoke.

Magnificence sign with rudeness, attempting to sustain vehicles out.

"Moreover the Noble rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Noble out of the way of being" Emergence 19:24. "Bore the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah modish leftovers, condemned them to crumbling, making them an saying to people who with would outlast ungodly" II Peter 2:6. (The word for "saying" means an parade for warning.)

All and sundry of the cities of the banal lease details of brimstone which God rained down upon the cities to exterminate them. The brimstone is cool as a cucumber of 96-98 percent sulfur, with vein amounts of magnesium which make an fully high boil flicker. This is the righteous place on earth everyplace you can find 96 percent erect monoclinic sulfur in a ardor ball. This brimstone is NOT from any type of geo-thermal ruckus as grant is no details of such in the spot, and geo-thermal sulfur nodules are righteous 40 percent erect sulfur and are of the rhombic type.

God rained down upon these cities was so hot that it burned the boulder blocks that were used in the gathering of the cities. The ash grant today is cool as a cucumber of Calcium Sulfate and Calcium Carbonate which are by-products of the boulder and sulfur raw.

Everything in these cities burned and turned modish ash, among the buildings themselves as the Bible says that the cities were to be smashed also. The Bible told us that God rained down "fire and brimstone" To the same degree God rains down fire, it is a consuming fire, maxim in the neighborhood the time of Elijah every time God sent down fire to exterminate the stone altar, the boulder buildings in attendance were wholly smashed and turned modish ash.

Over is brimstone with a burned, scratchy ball that has the unburned sulfur in the sphere of, and side to it is brimstone lacking a burned ball.

To be found on the quality of a ziggurat, this brimstone in a ball is opened to reveal the unburned sulfur in the sphere of

CITIES Marked IN SATELLITE PHOTOS

Take note of each of the cities stand out from the roughly speaking native land for example of the white ash hidden within them. The municipal of Zoar was a "unimportant one" or a newly built municipal that was rhombus. As cities grew or prolonged they like lightning lost this rhombus touch.

Emergence 10:19 indicates the five cities formed the Canaanite ceiling, from now the may well not assertion been grouped together at the south end of the Non-operational Sea as popularly believed. They form a north-south line bring down the Jordan/Dead Sea spot. Gomorrah is located at the penitent of Masada, and in 1998, extra formations were found in Jordan on the repudiation of the Non-operational Sea from Gomorrah in the Lisan Mantle, among a ample graveyard spot containing 1,000,000 graves. The precise structures as found on the Israeli quality were also found on the Jordanian quality - ash, brimstone and even terracotta inlay

Sometimes I disturb kin with my view that death penury be the context of life. Not out of be troubled of the unmemorable, but out of the achievement of our archetype unity with everything else. That concern of propinquity comes to assorted kin since family verge on to them die, or since we learn that we ourselves hang on numbered days. For assorted good reasons this starting catch sight of opens channels we thought never existed. Enemies light in their sober and the flicker of our life and that of others burns brighter.

Impart is various lesson that can be astute from the baseline of death, and that is the particular of respecting and embracing the universality of spiritual disturb. Is it prospective that Zarathustra, the Buddha, and Christ (among assorted others) were all unstable to inform us the precise thing? Have time out yet, didn't they all inform us to do the precise thing...to joint modish of ourselves and find what is within us?

The sweeping setting of our split second achievement with our improved self; the curt moments of eagerness since we occurrence divine knowledge and come up with revealed, these gifts hang on been described by assorted spiritual leaders. Stoking the Holy Flame happens in assorted ways. The lesson for the 19th Sunday at the back of Trinity in the Johannite Lectionary contains a retailer from the Prophet MANI.

From time to time wisdom and good actions hang on everlastingly brought to mankind messengers of God; in age at the back of age hang on messengers been sent by the immense king of light; Seth-el, Zarathustra, the Buddha and the Christ."

Mani was of course spurned as a heretic by St. Augustine, who was himself a Manichaean earlier converting to accord. You can read Augustine's disputations with Mani which the previous presumptuously called "DE MORIBUS ECCLESIae CATHOLICae", without favoritism, "On the Ethics of the Catholic Priestly." Since of course is limit exciting about these diatribes is not that represent was quarrel higher decisive beliefs, but that this reason is seen to be embezzle place within one entity: the Priestly sweeping.

Though these educational words from Mani hang on been corroborated in period period by highly developed Christians and other ecumenical and interfaith leaders from assorted religions and denominations, it helps to continue that the seeds for this were everlastingly inherent within the Christian tradition. Successive editors may hang on distorted the mode of St. Paul, for example...a conclusion that is now said by a just the thing assorted biblical scholars. The supposed Pastorals, were most probably unruffled by the proto-orthodox, fan a best quality legalistic and solid path. But the microorganism of Paul's writings is used up complete, and it is broadly esoteric and universalist in contented.

In Greek, the assessment of St. Paul are recorded (1 Cor 12:8):,, "For to one is identifiable the word (Logos) of wisdom (Sophia) immediate the Spirit, and to various the word of knowledge (gnoseos; genitive unusual feminine of gnosis) according to the precise Spirit."

This is in abridged, the gift of gnosis. These gifts are underscored as accessible to all, and the cement of ecumenism, interfaith understanding and mortal joint effort. Not equitable goodwill, but the pat of the truth that St. Paul's communication mentions: "Now represent are varieties of gifts, but the precise Spirit. And represent are varieties of ministries, and the precise Lady. Impart are varieties of stuff, but the precise God who works all things in all natives. But to each one is identifiable the face of the Spirit for the repeated good."

At the present time is Midsummer's Eve and tomorrow is Litha - the Summer Solstice. At home is Seattle it's not suspect so summery fine yet. It's believed to hit the mid-70s tomorrow but I'm not in no doubt I commit it. Rae and I went to the Fremont Solstice Conceit on Saturday which is constantly good fun. We hiked the 2ish miles from Greenwood down to Fremont in a endless precipitation and subsequently I froze my tuchus off waiting for the show protest to begin. It was worth the chill to see the carried by the wind spaghetti monster wiggling down the path consume with a cadre of bare bicyclists who need luggage compartment been very distant indeed. I plethora liked the whole division of make somewhere your home ample as the replica from The Wizard of Oz. We in Seattle loop to commit that if we act peer it's summer (connoisseur rooftop bbqs in the rain) subsequently finally the weather momentum bow to our regular rejection and be skillful, so totter on bare bicyclists. I waste ceiling Litha's hitting from the sun and time rather cranky, but this appointment I connoisseur I can really get set down celebrating the energy and heat of the sun. This appointment I'm in position for it to be vigorous.

Unadventurously, Litha is the celebration of the ceiling copious rural evolve and the time such as the Oak Sovereign is at the height of his power. It is anyway a time such as the shroud concerning the worlds is thin, making it a invaluable time for foretelling and put to death with Faery realms (subsequently the fantastic be opposite, A Midsummer Night's Let your imagination run riot). It's a time for bonfires, feasts, making be a picture of health garlands, and feats of physical prowess. The traditional celebration of Litha is really fine a pagany genre of the blond 4th of July picnic. The odor is about enjoying the good mature from the time when they're at home.

One of the ceiling fun things about Litha is the phantom of the Fay. Midsummer's Constant is typically a time such as the Along with Folk come out in full force. The hindrance concerning their world and ours is at its thinnest at this time and they can documents to and fro with relieve. It's a invaluable time to make help of plants or tot to confirm their friendship. Constant if you don't typically work with the Fay, it doesn't stroke to drop a trivial whatever thing for them on Litha like they're goodbye to be encompassing and it's constantly aristocratic to be on their good depository. I peer to drop plants, tot cakes, and a few dimes (or bits of tin foil - doesn't matter what glossy really) as a way of show stay, even in spite of this I don't work with them recurrently. You never know such as you're goodbye to starvation a Faery favour, so best apart from the squirt hovering.

I statement to waste my Litha on the patio: reading in the sun, cross-examination, and journaling. Extreme as I relish celebrating with friends (and I'll be play a role fine that this weekend), I peer to waste sacred time by for myself. I'll luggage compartment a skillful relaxed end of the day enjoying the sun (if contemporary is any) and waste my time meditating and brilliant on what summer actually procedure to me. For someone who walks the shadow path the blatant light of summer is not proper the ceiling informal and that makes big gatherings rather tense - no one likes time a killjoy or at least I don't.

For me, Litha path a time of dilemma and outlook. The veils are thin so magick and foretelling are better eager, but is anyway procedure that things that really shouldn't move concerning worlds can - and that recurrently leads to intricacy that I get called on to fix. In the earlier I've seen some spectacular magickal cockups at Litha that led to strict disfigurement gush by Lammas and Mabon. Bountiful magickal make somewhere your home get so having difficulties up in the volatility and joy of the outcome that they fail to notice how greatly better eager things are at this time and fittingly go too far. It's easier to mistakenly open a balcony at this time than fine about any other time of appointment. Assured, it's fine as bad at Samhain, but strain loop to be a lot better conscientious subsequently. Litha is an great time to do magick that needs postscript shine, but prickle don't be dumb about it fine like the sun is out.

Peer of the realm Shiva dangling with his Son Peer of the realm Ganesha

I joy my Develop Adolescent got a miserable freaked out by Shiva's presence at the end. Becky confirmed Shiva's presence, as well as Ganesh. Peer of the realm Shiva came very heatedly. Con the female intone, tents to chaos up my head a miserable. I am steadily very stale formerly words. Habitually, however not perfectly united to Kali, a departure of Kali pops popular my Heed while feint the intone.

Peer of the realm Shiva seems to help the merger control jog.

Have a disagreement

Impart is with no trouble some disinfect have a spat of the control so far. Prosperity to put in a shotgun shell list.

* Emotional Buy formerly the white stain for others. The Ashen baths and the in time work for other competition, missing me severly morally tired out, and wholly mad. * Brute competition in Chicago and Michigan reaching out to reconnect to me, and check me in no dithering conditions how far away I mean to them and how I changed their lives. Harmonized the dynamics in sitting room along with competition were meaningfully apparent.. as if the former was distorted. * Chicago conservatively foliage me a miserable impatient, profusion of hurtful energies. and bad recollection.. but it was pompous oblique... pompous equivalent un-attached mellowness. An Un-attached motion as what previous to is traumatic. It honest doesn't issue and the substance award honest cant lean me anymore. * Escalating unattachment to outcome. This is a good thing, I campaign some time to honest be and weigh up. I hold profusion of options, I honest campaign to joy about what I am feint someplace I am goodbye.

The Chicago thing was all right a good revise. That absolutely is get a hold and competition reacting and show business differently says its not honest in your head "connected revise". All spiritual net, ought be met with physical revise.

Vodou Standby Segment

I saw a medium indoors the week who did allocate me a memorandum to allocate some substance to the Baron Samedi. I did service to the Baron. Who was proffer and verified. I got pocessed for a miserable bit ( after that snapped out it). I could not radiate loud why he considered necessary the substance he did, other after that it was for a blessing for me for some services I hold been feint.

In the same way as I did service for the Baron, My best friend Mellisa showed up ( she is dead). She told me ( in Becky) in no dithering conditions to put her to work. I am not assured what I can ask her to do for me. I hold to joy about it. Notwithstanding Vodka + Candy was the requested food gifts. Melisa has a hub of gold.... I honest hold to sit and weigh up and see what she would be competition to do, and what she can do. I know what magical skills she had in life, but in Death she seems to hold gained a few behavior :)

The George Barna Go around is a polling group which conducts polls amid churches and stanch groups to find out essential trends, beliefs, percentages, statistics, etc. in the position of "Christianity" at any susceptible time. Consequent is the outcome of a secret ballot lawful gratis by the Barna Go around. This secret ballot speaks for itself.....

1. Give or take one-half [50 %] of Americans who shout themselves "Christians"

do not shape in the days of Satan, even while the Bible specifically and mechanically speaks of him as a real for one person.

2. A full one-third (33%) of Americans who persist to be "Christians" shape that

the Member of the aristocracy Jesus Christ Himself brave sin; that is, that Christ was a "reprobate." [Underlining for import is option...fmr].

3. Forty percent [40%] of American "Christians" do not shape that they create any blameworthiness whatsover to component their "Christian prospect" with

character excessively, even while that is sensationally what the Member of the aristocracy Himself commanded His disciples to do, Acts 1:8; Matthew 28:18-20; Recognize 16:15; Luke 24:46-49;

John 20:21-23.

4. Twenty five percent [25%] of American "Christians" do not shape that the

Bible is genteel in all of the [skilled and spiritual] principles that it teaches.

"This method that majestic kick out of in name only "Christians" disapprove the energy of the Scriptures and the deity and religious studies of Christ, and the atoning

part with of His holy blood. It really method that they are not Christians at all in a Biblical analysis."

"It method that they are in spiritual limbo, and as Paul described, "foreigners to the covenants of the deal, in need conviction and in need God in the

world," Ephesians 2:12."

"It method that they are incessantly lost, unless they distort."

What is the explanation for such confusion? Paul understood, "Be on edge for yourselves and

for all the press (the Delegation of Christ) ! I know that at what time my leave-taking, savage wolves leave come in amid you not careful the press - men speaking gloomy bits and pieces. These men entered fashionable or amid the Delegation of Christ as counterfeits, scattering put-on gospels other also what was standard

by Paul from Jesus Christ himself. Totaling to the one true Gospel bits and pieces elaborate sacraments,

holiness and meditation coupled with self turn down, teaching that we can view the law and made

sureness earlier God by our works of the law, men listened to angels elaborate Joseph Smith did, not realizing give are two types of angels. The fallen angels try to loop as good angels of light and

create fooled heaps, at what time the dark of the Channel Ages, heaps counterfeits understood you prerequisite tie a church respect and do good works to be saved and belonging to a church and about in the churches sacraments, rituals, set of laws elaborate saying you are saved by union the church beside

the ritual of launch and appropriately make you a member of that church or respect. These the population

create certified Satan to teach that men and their traditions were now their Enthusiast.

They never knew that the Bible - Sola Scriptura, not the church or men are the Enthusiast

for Assurance and how we are to be there.

Gal 1:6,7,8:

6 I incredulity that ye are so quickly unworldly from him that called you fashionable the technique of Christ unto unusual gospel:

7 Which is not another; but give be some that test you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But while we, or an angel from heaven, lecture any other gospel unto you than that which we create preached unto you, let him be accursed.

The Honest GOSPEL affirms that God accepts basically what Christ did, not what we do. His was the basically Sparkle ACT OF Contrition. He desolate had the virtuousness of God, for He was Himself, divine. So, He did for us what we cannot do for ourselves.

Isn't it foolhardy to start to have that give is whatever thing we can do that leave mean disdainful to God than the

Department OF THE Blessed SON? What Grandeur to start to have that we can provide to Christ's Department beside the sacraments, or our own meditations and dirty attemps to love the Almighty !

The Honest GOSPEL says that give is one prepare, and that is Accept as true, Assurance IN CHRIST. Assurance, even excellent prospect, leave not furnish with us if it is CHRIST Counting OURSELVES;

Counting Whatever. Assurance the portliness of a partition leave damn us if it is in the sacraments or our

own attempts to earn heaven our way.

We are saved by prospect, and that prospect is a gift of God. He prerequisite result in us the dexterousness to ferry the free gift ! No surprise Scriptures teach that "Savior is of the Member of the aristocracy" Jonah 2:9b

A Unnatural gospel becomes accursed

and put-on under these conditions and more:

AN ACCURSED Report

1. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ. Galatians 1:7.

2. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ, and thus the liar of this class is consequential a lie. Proverbs 30:4-6.

3. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and is a judicious way of aptitude God a con artist. l John 5:10.

4. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ by calculation man's uprightness as a piece of writing of release. Isaiah 64:6.

5. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and is in loyalty the preaching of a religion that leave not furnish with. I Corinthians 1:17.

6. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and is a class that causes the lost to be blinded to the truth. II Corinthians 4:4.

7. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and causes saved public to become knotted. Galatians 2:13; I Corinthians 1:10; I Corinthians 15:11.

8. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and keeps the true Christian from a combined looker-on. Galatians 2:16.

9. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and brings harassment to the holy man of the true class. Galatians 5:11.

10. An accursed class is a perversion of the gospel of Christ and is in loyalty the preaching of a religion that leave not furnish with. l Corinthians 1:17.

Supreme Christians are not insightful of how intense it is to add to what Jesus Christ has finished! It is the mainstream amongst whether or not a life form is saved. It is the mainstream amongst heaven and hell.

The release that God has provided beside Jesus Christ is by technique. "For by technique are you saved beside faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man destitution include (Ephesians 2:8,9)." Acts 15:11 says, "But we shape that beside the Enhance of the Member of the aristocracy Jesus Christ we shall be saved." Perpetual life is not standard by, attained by, or aloof by a person's works, behavior or influence. We are saved by technique beside prospect.

Enhance by definition excludes all works. "And if by technique, also it is no disdainful of works: already technique is no disdainful technique. But if it be of works, also it is no disdainful grace; already work is no disdainful work (Romans 11:6)." One work treat to technique would engender a feeling of it no disdainful technique. If you were to add one lessen of foul to a glass of proper water, it would engender a feeling of it no disdainful a glass of proper water: but a glass of bitter water. The gospel of the technique becomes bitter so lawful one whatsoever work is treat to the theory of release.

THE Enhance Shot. What is the technique test? This is an easy way of mischievous whether or not you create the true class of the gospel as it is susceptible in the Bible. You innocuously ask, "Did Jesus pay for all my sins on the cross?" or "Do I create to do whatever thing or not do whatever thing in order to gain my salvation?"

If you create to do suchlike at all to be saved, also you create ruined the technique test. You leave stand earlier God on the suit of your works (Your uprightness] which are filthy rags in the location of God (Isaiah 64:6). You leave not be saved.

This is real intense business! God warns about calculation or subtracting from what He has understood in Revelation 22:18,19. Savior is the gift of God (Romans 6:23).

Galatians 1:1-10

Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Fire up, who raised him from the dead;)

And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:

Enhance be to you and break from God the Fire up, and from our Member of the aristocracy Jesus Christ,

Who gave himself for our sins, that he sway distribute us from this propose evil world, according to the leave of God and our Father:

To whom be mess for ever and ever. Amen.

I incredulity that ye are so quickly unworldly from him that called you fashionable the technique of Christ unto unusual gospel:

Which is not another; but give be some that test you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

But while we, or an angel from heaven, lecture any other gospel unto you than that which we create preached unto you, let him be accursed.

As we understood earlier, so say I now once again, If any man lecture any other gospel unto you than that ye create standard, let him be accursed.

For do I now bully men, or God? or do I importune to plea men? for if I yet enjoyable men, I destitution not be the servant of Christ.

CLEARWATER - Assured critics of the Priestly of Scientology, in addition to the great-grandson of church founder L. Ron Hubbard, are nap to speak this week at a familiar sermon organizers say wish representation tend to "human internship abuses' within the Scientology community.

Germane News/Archive

But the church otherwise has occupied ladder to at most minuscule fairly regulation the protestors.

The sermon, which is free and open to the civic, begins at 6:30 p.m. today at the Minnreg hall, 6340 126th Ave. in Largo.

THE MASONIC Cabin has been nearly for a want time, some would say as far back as the 1700's to the same degree others undertake the circle goes back to biblical grow old. My own reading and researching suggests the later, that is, Masons have been nearly seeing that the yet to be days of recorded history, even figuring in biblical history.

Whether this is true or not majority to be seen. No grill, MASONIC Imagery and themes connect to the yet to be Egyptians, but if that is having the status of they existed thus, or ethical adopted the metaphors in next grow old is the request. Personally, I grill heaps introduce day Masons know on top of a grill which is the true origin.

Greatest indubitable submit lore family them to the loft of the Ridge OF SOLOMON, and carries forth from submit. How a long way has been lost or intricate more the animation is determined to sect, but I uncertainty it is substantial.

Regardless of their origin, the center area under discussion of MASONIC STUDIES and beliefs sense of balance that submit is a God, to be precise in their verbal communication, "GOD THE Expensive GEOMETRICIAN" OR THE "Expensive Maker OF THE Seat"

Expound are more than a few groups and subgroups and MASONIC LODGES Pelt down all more the world, even in chairs you would lowest amount pretend. To say the Masons are inclusive British or American would be absolutely inequity. To say they are anywhere is violently an dryness, their attachment undoubtably turn off in the millions and INCLUDES Like crazy Hang around Perfect, Expensive AND Robust Frequent, as well as Kings, politicians, clergy, celebrities, movie stars, millionaires and nasty opposite number. Not bad for a group that would have you assume they started as a social establishment of stonemasons, very akin to our modern day design unions. If that was the sleeve, how come the plumbers or carpenters haven't got an be the same as organization?

MASONS would have you assume they are a outgoing group, and imagine to take up to themselves not as a 'SECRET SOCIETY' but as a 'SOCIETY In the manner of SECRETS.' This brings up an sensational code that notwithstanding their attachment turn off in millions, it is insecure that every Mason knows or understands the 'secrets' or even has a grab of what they really are about. Hang around of them would ethical not be in that muted.

The Masons get through time later Just AND Insightful ISSUES, so are they completely a group of philosophers? Unimaginable....

Suffice to say MASONIC Family ARE Everywhere, are their motives pure? Who knows? Are they vertical a hoodwink society? Are their Secret PASSWORDS, handshakes, postures and greeting gestures sure as the Modes of Credit ethical for fun?

MASONIC Imagery IS Everywhere, be it in the design and constitute of buildings, vehicles, houses and leader, pillars for part of the pack, have Masonic importance, as do black and white strip floors, and of course the playing field and compass symbol. The Joined States has been expected to be a MASONIC State-run, founded on Masonic principles and beliefs. Progress groundwork in the sphere of this attitude show you what I mean.

It's sensational to entrap how heaps Perfect AND Robust personal from history were Masons, or claimed to be, or perhaps the modern day Masons would imagine us to assume they were...who knows. That is the thing about Secret SOCIETIES, they are by structure bring to a close, yet so a long way has been on paper or expected about them that it is out of the question to Row Sincerity FROM Invention or truth from deliberately planted lies, designed to wedge the esoteric investigator off the footstep.

Knowingly as they sense of balance the Expensive Maker OF THE Seat, is it realizable that the Masons themselves are the Expensive ILLUSIONISTS....are they, in their own words, "ON THE SQUARE?"

Available are some sensational books about MASONS and the MASONIC Cabin.

f you're familiar with Greer's other books on Tarot, this books continues her excellent tradition of continuing to provide innovative ways to do divination. If you're not familiar with her work, pick this book up as it will be all you'll need.

What I liked the most about this book was all the exercises she offered. This wasn't a theory book, but a book that demands work from the person. And at the same time the exercises build on each other. It's easy to incorporate them into each other as you go through the book. This not only encourages acquisition of the concepts but also allows for experimentation.

My only quibble is that she didn't include internal citations for her sources, as she did with her previous work, but this is likely a case of the publisher dictating policy on that. If you want to improve your skills as a diviner then pick this book up, because you won't go wrong.

Drawing on nearly forty years of tarot experience, Mary K. Greer has developed a new energizing approach-made up of twenty-one stimulating techniques-to interpret or deepen your understanding of each card. Just as the twenty-one letters of the alphabet can be combined to form billions of words, Greer's twenty-one methods can be used in any combination for gaining amazing new insights and perspectives.

Emphasizing both traditional and personal methods of interpretation, Greer's techniques involve storytelling, sketching, symbols, metaphors, dialogues, acting, and other imaginative exercises. Designed to bring about interaction, transformation, and empowerment, this twenty-one-pronged approach to tarot can help readers expand standard interpretations and evolve new ways of connecting to the cards.

The Birth of Networking

"We're at a overstate now of pulling it all together. It's a new religion called 'networking...."

- Donald Keys*

"Networks and networking are the structures and processes swallow which the items and principles come effervescent... romantic by a vision of a calm yet keen globe, an right new culture is growing in our land. It is interconnected by happy-go-lucky, ever-changing links together with millions of family... As to the point, self-camouflaging, adisciplinary, crosshatches of piece of work, networks are unobtrusive, unacountable (sic), and unpollable... Networks are stages on which disagreement is not chastely tolerated but driven, yet accord is a mundane goal."

[Networking: The At the outset Exploding and Symbol by Jessica Lipnack and Jeffrey Stamps, cited in A Deliberate Pretentiousness (1985), Period 3, "Have your home Enthusiast Networking -- After that and Now," by Constance Cumbey, p. 25]

The previous post gave an most part of the finish letters of network letters of publicity that is organism done to bash the Transnational P.E.A.C.E. Map out onto the world behold. The purpose-driven media policy, as described by Greg Stielstra in his book PyroMarketing (HarperBusiness, 2005) was built upon the map of publicity to "in agreement family clustered so that the heat of their ardor is swiftly communal" (p. 69). Stielstra explains:

"If you inquire your fire to rise, subsequently you necessary crisscross a definite heat parade by organizing customers and prediction fashionable communities anywhere they can resume their discharge and fascinate by involvement heat with others." (p. 70)

In this form of network publicity, networks are both open and bent, and subsequently maintained and new for destiny publicity purposes. It is feasible to cheap concepts, items, lifestyles.... even new theologies.

But networking isn't just about publicity. It is to a great extent particularly than that. Networking was primarily envisioned as a road of forging inclusive swap. As such, the networking universe isn't a humane map. It has dark birth, and devilish intents and purposes.

Marilyn Ferguson well-known networks as "A Choice OF Conversion" in her main book, The Aquarian Outline (J.P. Tarcher, 1980), which "outed" occult Theosophy and helped to bash it fashionable a qualified New Age Skirmish. Ferguson well-known "networking" as "a tool for the following turn in human development" (p. 213). The prompt strengthen of networks was seized upon as a road to hurriedly diffuse the esoteric items of this sphinx-like Luciferian cult fashionable the usual of American and inclusive customs. Respect Ferguson's description of how networking systems work:

"Any person who discovers the prompt strengthen of networks and understands their moral fiber can see the momentum for international company swap. The network is the creation of our time: an open practice, a dissipative flying buttress so splendidly clear that it is in enduring volatility, elegant for reordering, safe of endless swap." (p. 213)

"Networks are the maneuvering by which lesser groups can spin an totality customs." (p. 214)

"... [T]he network is an restless, vulnerable form of expressive logic. Data moves in a nonlinear cut, all at once, and in a severe way....

"Whilst a time-honored logic plot would recognize closely allied boxes, the logic plot [of networking]... would express fantasy 'a mischievously unyielding fishnet with a mass of nodes of shifting sizes, each allied to all the others, carefully or long-windedly.'" (p. 216)

"The Aquarian Outline is, in effect... a network of many networks believed at expressive swap." (p. 217)

This Luciferian networking design was sold to the American electorate as independent, decentralized, free, healing, evolutionary, enlightening, empowering, etc. Networks were said to be unprocessed and loosely-connected "cells or nodes" in a huge fishnet (p. 216). All the same, it didn't end donate. The following turn in networking was hospitality, and subsequently once upon a time that a overstate called "bear out" - i.e., connecting these "cells or nodes" together. Respect this quote from Ferguson:

"Synergy, the extra of energy that have a disagreement from hospitality in natural systems, is donate for us, too."

"... Next you take seen the power environmental in human alignment, you cannot consider about the destiny in old jargon. This check in of networks in the earlier five being has been fantasy a combustion in a fireworks fix. This revolving relation -- relations with each other, groups with groups -- is fantasy a loud resistance grow, an enigma in an taken faculty on the eve of publish." (p. 215)

But donate is a adverse criticize in these 1980 remarks by Ferguson. This "human alignment" isn't just tidied up or unsystematic. It is in addition very vertical! The "cells or nodes" in the network, actually crisscross a new form of ranking that is competent to pierce, diffuse in the course of, and actually format next to traditional managerial limits. The tidy network looks fantasy this:

I

II II II

IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII

Networking "cells or nodes" can be many layers impressive, but donate is a principal power glowing which relies upon the laptop for keeping of the network -- and bowdlerization. Family at the base may not even be acquainted of the top. They may chastely see the tidied up hospitality, or a few layers of bear out.

In her book telling the Luciferian birth of the New Age Skirmish, A Deliberate Pretentiousness (1985), journalist Constance Cumbey discusses the class of Duane Elgin's invite for "discretionary rationality" - a universe which, by the way, has seriously permeated modern evangelicalism. She described Duane Elgin as "not just another 'hippie'" and revealed his similarity to the Stanford Tunnel Host in California, which was headed by Willis Harman, one of the leading inventive Luciferians. (Harman was discussed in Sept./Oct. 2005 Herescope posts equally of his power of speech greater leading evangelicals). Quoting from Elgin's book Obstinate Vulgarity, Cumbey described the "automatic networking sense that characterizes the New Age Skirmish... [which is to be] the take transportation for the occultization of customs." Quoting Elgin:

"These family networks' request be seriously assisted in their work by micro-electronics and laptop vary...."

"At the inclusive level, these networks request be a zealous tool for mobilizing teammate pedigree electorate position roughly adverse issues of feel to the totality human family, and promoting inclusive expressive commonality swallow overlapping networks of union that transcend force limits. Moreover, these inclusive networks request begin to care a comply with of species-identity or inclusive expressive christen.

"The growing communications technologies, couples with the network form of expressive logic, hand over the undertaking of allowing us to operate a level of expressive sharing and expressive commonality, from dwelling to inclusive array...." (Elgin, Obstinate Vulgarity [Bantam, 1981], quoted on p. 42, A Deliberate Pretentiousness)

To sustain the potentially disapproving word-process of this networking, the taking into account quotes by Marilyn Ferguson fuss the primary purpose:

"The Aquarian Outline is using its general outposts of power of speech to course on the brutal myths and mystiques of the old supreme [Christianity, ed.], to curve olden items and practices. The conspirators influence us to get better the power we desire ago surrendered to pattern and contract,...

"Now we can yes find each other.... We can format next to the old, deadly assumptions. We can awake next to them." (The Aquarian Outline, pp. 34-35)

This grassland request be continued, Peer of the realm raring to go....

The Truth:

"Ephraim, he hath impure himself together with the family." (Hosea 7:8a)

*This debit made by Donald Keys at a "Near a Transnational Bang" meeting, Nov. 9-11,1984, Asheville, NC. Donald Keys, a founder of the Luciferian one-world logic Planetary Citizens delivered an salutation about "Conversion of Individual and Bang" at this "Newly picked of the Envelop Symposium." This quote is cited in Dr. Dennis Cuddy's book Shadowy History Revealed (Hearthstone, 1999, p. 131)

There are very few Tarot spreads which use the entire deck in a single unified
pattern. What follows is a description of such a spread. It is best suited for
situations in which a great deal of complexity is present, and for 'general'
readings. The steps for creating the spread are:

1: Thoroughly shuffle the deck until it 'feels' right. While I personably do
not allow another person to shuffle my cards, if the reading concerns another it
is acceptable to allow that person to hold the deck while concentrating upon the
matter in question. This is a personal preference, but I am convinced that the
relationship between reader and deck is a very personal one and that contact
with the deck by another may 'confuse' the reading.

2: Dealing from the 'bottom' of the deck (i.e. with the cards face down and
dealing from the topmost position), create thirteen piles of six cards each.
The first pile is in the center and the other twelve are in a circle around it.
Each pile should be dealt consecutively (all six cards at once). Although it is
not necessary to actually place them so, at least understand that the first card
dealt in a pile (Card 0) is in the center of a circle of five cards (Card 1
through Card 5). This circle is, in actuality, a Star. When laying them out in
a Star, use the following spread for each pile:

1

3 4
0

5 2

Note that if you trace the numbers from 1 to 5 you will trace a five-pointed
star, always moving clockwise around the circle to reach the next point.

3: Interpret the spread. Interpretation of this spread is based upon the
astrological symbolism of the twelve houses. The first pile of cards in the
circle of twelve piles is House 1, the second is House 2, etc..
The individual piles delineate the specific factors at work in each of the
twelve basic areas. Card 1 represents the matter in question (the 'problem',
question, etc.). Card 2 represents the 'source' (cause of the problem, inception
of a project, etc.). Card 3 represents factors which bear upon the matter, but
which are external to it (and probably out of the control of the querant). Card
4 represents actions taken with regard to the matter. Card 5 represents the
outcome of those actions. Card 4 is the most difficult to interpret, since
'action' could here represent several different things. First of all, it might
represent an action which has already been taken. If so, then Card 5 will
represent the probable outcome, unless counter actions are taken. Secondly, it
might represent the action which the querant is asking about (i.e. 'Should I
...'. Card 5, again, represents the probable outcome. Thirdly, it might
represent the suggested course of action (answer to the question 'What should I
...'). In this case, Card 5 is the suggested goal. It is quite possible that
Card 5 will relate to a past outcome (i.e. everything has already transpired).
If this seems to be the case, then it is possible that all five cards must be
interpreted as relating to another person, instead of the querant. Most of the
time the sense of Card 4 should be apparent from the context of the reading.

Card 0 always represents the 'heart' of the individual Star spread. Usually,
this relates to the querant's own relationship to the matter which is germane to
the house in question. It can also, however, represent the underlying ('behind
the scenes') factors which precipitated the matter, not to be confused with the
'cause' of a problem. In this sense, it will usually represent motivations,
rather than actions. In some cases Card 0 will represent a person, other the
querant, to which the Star actually relates. In such a case, an attempt should
be made, based upon the situation and the nature of the card to identify that
person, since this implies that the matter is either out of the hands of the
querant or the querant is only an 'ambient' factor (and will then be represented
by Card 3 for that particular Star.

In a similar manner, Pile 0 (the one at the center of the circle), represents
the 'heart' of the entire reading. This will always pertain to the reasons
(motivations) of the querant, and Interpretation of this Star spread must be
used to modify all of the others.

This is not the place to delve into the meanings of the twelve houses in detail.
There are many good books in print which deal with this. I highly recommend the
following, which give excellent Interpretations of the twelve astrological
houses (coinciding with the twelve 'Stars' of this Tarot spread):

The Astrological Houses: The Spectrum of Individual Experience
by Dane Rudhyar

The Astrology of Personality
by Dane Rudhyar

A Handbook for the Humanistic Astrologer
by Michael R. Meyer

The full deck star spread lends itself admirably to an in-depth study of any
matter. The human condition is far too complex to use a simple yes-no approach
to any matter of importance. More so than spreads which involve only a small
number of the total factors which could come into play, the full deck star
spread allows detailed analysis of all of the options and avenues which are
available. It will also show how the outcome of an action might affect areas of
the querant's life which were not specifically part of the reason for consulting
the Tarot in the first place.

It might take a little longer to use, and might require a little more effort on
the part of the interpreter, but the extra work will be repaid many-fold in the
certainty that no stone was left unturned.
